Review from M J (Daughter of Client) published on 10 February 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have found the experience with helping hands a very positive one . From meeting with manager and putting care in place they have been really helpful and understanding . The staff are lovely and caring and I know my father enjoys their company and my mind is put at rest a bit as I live away that he's
being checked on and having something to eat.
They keep me informed if they think dad is unwell or not himself . I would highly recommend helping hands to anyone who is looking for caring , friendly and professional staff.

I am a single handed carer for my wife and we have a carer from Helping Hands every Wednesday afternoon to provide respite for me. I appreciate the support provided and I cannot praise highly enough the carers provided by Helping Hands, who are friendly companions in addition to being there to help
my wife when needed.

helping with meals nothing is a.problem my only critisisum which is nothing to do with the care mum get s is that it's nearly costs as much for half an hour as an hour when a hour in the evening would be to long but overall my Mother is very happy with the care she gets

We are pleased to hear that the team in your area has been so supportive and that both the manager and the carers have provided such helpful and reliable care for your mother. It is lovely to know that she feels comfortable with everyone who visits and that nothing is ever too much trouble for them.
We also appreciate you sharing your thoughts regarding the difference in cost between a half-hour and an hour visit. While this does not relate to the quality of care your mother receives, your feedback is valuable and will be passed on to the appropriate team for review.
Overall, we are delighted that your mother is happy with the care she receives.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Helping Hands acted very quickly to set up the care, and they gave a good introduction on how the care operated. You were allowed to contribute your point of view. Explained the role of the carers. Acted very quickly when I had a crisis with one of carers and was dealt with understanding. The manager
was a phone call away and always replied quickly. Liaise with NHS professionals and dealt with any issues with prompt action and made sure everyone worked together in harmony for the best care for the patient, and supported the next of kin through a difficult time.
